Merge PR 'Make particles solid squares when cl_particles_quake is set to 2'
This creates a new function, CL_NewQuakeParticle, that is used instead of CL_NewParticle when cl_particles_quake is enabled. The function calls CL_NewParticle with a some hardcoded defaults to make the particle texture a disc, or solid square, based on the value of cl_particles_quake.
Improves particle function documentation.

Updates .gitignore to exclude all generated build objects and the

Removes files from legacy VS versions.
The resulting build isn't usable for playing (see README.md).

hadn't found where the good SDL documentation was, and didn't have a
high DPI Windows test machine.
Uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW on Linux, this is unaffected by synchronisation
adjustments and is used by SDL_GetPerformanceCounter() (we'll use it
directly to support dedicated servers without SDL).
Removes gettimeofday() and usleep() which were marked obsolete and
removed in POSIX.1-2008 so the old comment // FIXME improve this check
was impossible to address. The gettimeofday() replacement is very well
tested now (sys_useclockgettime 1 is default even in div0-stable).
Removes host_maxwait as the problems it worked around were fixed.
For 231beb2c234914f942166eb152c44e55b5b01f86 I tested incorrectly, using
Task Manager inside the VM which reports low CPU load even when spinning.
DP's `status` command showed the correct result.
Changes the default path from select() to: usleep() on POSIX, Sleep() on
Windows.

Make the Sys_Error() message more informative
Re: 24550510e6ff331c1749707df7fad608f618bdd3 as discussed in chat, there
was a good reason to change this word: it indicates DP deliberately
stopped execution, whereas "Error" is generic (most problems that can
happen on a computer are some form of error). Also "Engine Error"
makes it sound like there's a bug in DP, which isn't necessarily the
case: there are several scenarios where user error can trigger this.
This message was already different from Quake's "Quake Error".
Pragmatically speaking, absent any good reason otherwise, naming conventions for functions like Sys_Error should remain consistent with Quake for developer sanity.

Fix two memory allocation issues

commit reverts the bad line from that commit.

server: always use correct case for map names
Previously whatever was typed in as the map/changelevel argument was
used even if it didn't match the case of the filename in the pak, which
meant QC could see multiple instances of the same map that differed only
by case, causing problems for gameplay stats.
Now DP will always use the same case as the real .bsp filename for the
`mapname` globals, and the sv_world* and cl_world* cvars, and the server
status and getinfo/getstatus responses. This matches the behaviour of
QC code which retrieved the name from the VFS, such as the `gotomap` and
voting code in Nexuiz and Xonotic.

SVVM: Fix segfault during shutdown, improve previous commit
In 30c47b1aff3ac28359c469a40c44ee700c80e814 a bug in SVVM_reset_cmd was
revealed because that code never ran before that commit:
sometimes the server segfaulted at end of match because SVVM_reset_cmd
called QC code even though SVVM_reset_cmd would only be called by
PRVM_Prog_Reset after it had freed the tempstring memory... so if QC
created a tempstring, crash.
This commit refactors the SV VM shutdown to be consistent with the CL
and MENU shutdown by moving the QC SV_Shutdown() call into a separate
func that (optionally) resets the VM afterwards. As per 30c47b1aff3ac28359c469a40c44ee700c80e814 we MUST reset when stopping a
server to avoid crashes later, but we can still skip it when changing
map (like in previous versions).
